Whether your boiler is making strange noises, leaking water, showing low pressure, or simply refusing to switch on, we’ll find the cause and get it fixed. One of the most common faults is a lack of heat or hot water, which could be due to a faulty thermostat, broken pump, or air in the system. Other common issues include pilot lights that won’t stay lit, error codes flashing on the display, or radiators not warming up properly.

At Simply Plumbing, we use professional diagnostic tools to accurately pinpoint the issue without unnecessary guesswork. Once we’ve identified the problem, we’ll explain the situation in plain English and offer a clear, honest quote for the repair. If we can fix it there and then, we will.

Frequently Asked Questions

If your boiler suddenly stops working, the first thing to do is stay calm and check a few basic things before calling for a repair. Look at the boiler display to see if an error code is showing, check the pressure gauge to make sure it’s at the correct level, and confirm that your thermostat and programmer are set correctly. If the pressure is low, topping it up may resolve the issue, but only do this if you’re confident and have been shown how. If there’s no obvious fix, it’s best to turn the boiler off and contact a Gas Safe registered engineer like Simply Plumbing. Continuing to reset or run a faulty boiler can sometimes cause more damage. We’ll quickly diagnose the fault, explain the problem clearly, and carry out a safe, professional repair to restore your heating and hot water as soon as possible.

Yes, at Simply Plumbing we repair most boiler makes and models commonly found in Hertford homes. This includes popular brands such as Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal, Baxi, Glow-worm, and many others. Our engineers have experience working with combi boilers, system boilers, and traditional heat-only boilers, both old and new. Modern boilers often display fault codes, which help us identify problems quickly, while older systems may require a more hands-on diagnostic approach. Either way, we have the knowledge and tools needed to carry out effective repairs. If a part needs replacing, we’ll source a quality replacement and let you know the cost before any work goes ahead. If a boiler is beyond economical repair, we’ll be honest and explain your options, but we’ll never pressure you into a replacement if a repair is possible.

Whether it’s worth repairing an old boiler depends on its age, condition, and how often it’s been breaking down. As a general rule, if your boiler is under 10 years old and the repair cost is reasonable, a repair is usually the best option. However, if your boiler is over 15 years old, inefficient, and needing frequent repairs, replacing it may be more cost-effective in the long run. Older boilers tend to be less energy efficient, which means higher heating bills and a greater risk of future breakdowns. At Simply Plumbing, we’ll always give honest advice based on your situation. If a repair makes sense, we’ll carry it out properly. If replacement is the better option, we’ll explain why and talk you through modern, efficient alternatives without any pressure. Our priority is helping you make the right decision for your home and budget.
